This way will allow you to manage the measurement aspects without the necessity of all the code refactoring. Here is the example of how to use this approach:
Here it is presented how to measure the certain step's execution time. We should instantiate that abstract class right within the code to be measured so it will be wrapped with step() method implementation for each required part of code.
The provided example shows how I measured some files.
